Internet connections/access

[Anxious in BR]

Does any one know if AKL rooms have internet connections?

Are there any Internet cafes at Disney?

Thanks!

AKL will have dial up access. The areas that do have wireless require you to pay to access. It is the convention hotels that provide wireless.

If you do a search on the DIS you can find the list of hotels that have high speed internet.
